4.  To manually change each of the picture settings, use the 
Up/Down Arrow buttons on the remote to highlight that 
picture setting, then use the Left/Right Arrow buttons to 
adjust the setting:
•  Auto Brightness Control - The auto brightness control detects 
the light levels in the room and automatically adjusts the 
backlight for the best picture. Select Off, Low, Medium, or High.
•  Backlight - Adjusts the LED brightness to affect the overall 
brilliance of the picture. Backlight cannot be adjusted when 
starting from some picture modes.   
•  Brightness - Adjusts the black level of the picture. When this 
setting is too low, the picture may be too dark to distinguish 
details. When this setting is too high, the picture may appear 
faded or washed out.
•  Contrast - Adjusts the white level of the picture. When this 
setting is too low, the picture may appear dark. When this 
setting is too high, the picture may appear faded or washed 
out. If the setting is too high or too low, detail may be difficult 
to distinguish in dark or bright areas of the picture.
•  Color - Adjusts the intensity of the picture colors. 
•  Tint - Adjusts the hue of the picture. This setting is useful in 
adjusting the flesh tones in the picture. If flesh appears too 
orange, reduce the level of color before adjusting tint.
•  Sharpness - Adjusts the edge sharpness of picture elements. 
It can be used to sharpen non-HD (high definition) content; 
however, it will not produce detail that does not otherwise 
exist.
